Once considered a bombshell who posed for a slew of magazines, Loni Willison is now a homeless person often spotted digging through California dumpsters.
According to the ex-fitness model, her life fell apart following her divorce from Baywatch star Jeremy Jackson.
X17 Online spoke to Loni in May, 2023. In the interview, she blamed her ex, whom she accused of trying to strangle her once, for her downward spiral.
“My ex-husband. Getting married. At least I got divorced,” she said when asked what the reason for her being homeless is. “He set everything up to do this to me.”
Loni and Jeremy tied the knot in 2012 and their union ended two years later. Loni then suffered mental breakdown, anxiety and depression. Her breakdown, combined with addictions to alcohol and crystal meth, led to her losing her job and her home, making her a homeless person.
According to reports, she has been offered help on several occasions, but she refused, asserting her independence. She was quoted saying, “I don’t need help. I have everything I need.”
Speaking to X17 Online, Loni said she was in a lot of pain, claiming she can’t live indoors because someone “electrocuted” her every day for nearly a year and she now can’t be any near appliances or exposed to electricity.
“I think because I [pick up] on electricity, I also pick up on other things, like certain chemicals or batteries, or fuses, like wire, different types of metals. So I think my body even filters that kind of stuff,” she said.
“I’m not sure exactly, I’d have to go through a big X-ray, sonogram machine or something to see that. It’s pretty intense.”
The former spouse of the Baywatch star appeared to have lost some of her upper front teeth.
Her ex, who is active on the social media, has experienced some rough times himself since Baywatch. In 2017, he was sentenced to 270 days in prison and put on probation for five years after striking a plea deal for allegedly stabbing a woman in LA in 2015. He has also battled addictions.
As of Loni, her days are tough and she struggles to make ends meet while trying to provide food for herself with the few belongings she keeps in the shopping cart she carries with her wherever she goes.
